I have noticed that Tangled has a gigantic following and was an instant hit when it was released. It made tons of money at the box office and the merchandise is heavily in demand. I was very impressed by Tangled and I think it will definitely become a Disney classic.
In comparison, I noticed that Princess and the Frog, which was released the year before Tangled, made an average amount of money at the box office, but people were buying up all the merchandise even before the movie was released. Critics seemed to receive it well and the general public enjoyed it. I thoroughly enjoyed the Princess and the Frog. However, it has not become a big of hit as Tangled and the public seems to have "thrown away" the Princess and the Frog in favor of Tangled.
I can't help but wonder why people are so obsessed over Tangled, while they completely disregard the Princess and the Frog. Is it because people are prejudiced against hand-drawn films? Is it because Disney marketed Tangled like Dreamworks does their films?
As stated before, I loved Tangled, but I thought that the Princess and the Frog was a better film. I can't help but feel a little sad that people don't seem to care for the Princess and the Frog anymore. I also feel that the supreme success of Tangled versus the Princess and the Frog will hurt the chances of the return of hand-drawn animation.
So WDW Magic members, which film do you like better and why?
